Product description

Dark, wild, reckless like dancing on the lip of an abyss. Cancer, monsters, death, life. The monster shows up just after midnight, as they tend to do. Conor isn’t afraid. Not at first. It’s not the monster he expected. Not the one he’s seen in nightmares ever since Mum got sick. But this monster – ancient, wild and elemental – wants the scariest thing of all. The truth.

  • The playscript for the Old Vic production of A Monster Calls
  • Based on Patrick Ness’s novel, which won the Carnegie Medal
  • A heartbreaking and powerful story of cancer, fear and hope
  • This script is ideal for class reading or school performances

Bestselling and award-winning novelist Patrick Ness was born in Virginia, USA, and spent his upbringing in the states of Hawaii, Washington and California. He has lived in London since 1999. He is the author of a novel and short story collection for adults, but is best known for the Chaos Walking trilogy: The Knife of Never Letting Go, The Ask and the Answer and Monsters of Men. The trilogy has won the Guardian Children’s Fiction Prize, the Costa Children’s Book of the Year Prize, and the Booktrust Teenage Prize. In 2011 Monsters of Men won the prestigious Carnegie Medal after all three books in the trilogy were shortlisted, the first time that has ever happened.

A Monster Calls is Patrick’s sixth book, created from the final idea of 2009 Carnegie Medal winner Siobhan Dowd, whose early death from cancer prevented her from writing it herself. In 2012 it became the first book ever to win both the Carnegie Medal and Kate Greenaway Award in the same year.
